Chapter 64 Burning Night
"Wait... go down? Now?"

He Feng turned his head, clutching the seat pillow behind him with one hand, his face pale.

"Forget it, miss."

He said with a wry smile.

"I can't help you either."

"Ok, I know."

Xie Yuzhi answered while unfastening her seat belt.

"You don't need to get off, just stay with the driver."

"Thank you for your generosity."

He Feng finally breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw the three young people in the back seat of the car were about to get out of the car, his expression became serious again.

"Then you all plan to go there?"

"of course."

The person who answered was Ji Chunzao.Just tonight, even this normally cheerful and lively little girl seemed a bit serious, and she hardly spoke anything else along the way.

She didn't show this in the afternoon, she was still laughing and playing with him, it seemed that she had a premonition on the way here; and like Chun Zao, Yan Jingxing's heart was always shrouded in a sense of heaviness, which became real at the moment when he heard the gunshot in the wind, and fell like a piece of iron.

"You guys... aren't you afraid?"

afraid?
Yan Jingxing lowered his eyes, staring at his unconsciously clenched fists.

At least, he knows that the source of this "heavyness" is not fear, but an emotion that is close to a sense of responsibility: from the moment he obtains the ability to surpass ordinary people, he is destined to embark on an extraordinary battlefield, where is the proper destination for soldiers.

It's just that this day came too suddenly and hastily, and Yan Jingxing was really young, there were still too many things that he didn't understand, and he still couldn't sort out his immature thoughts.

Thankfully, he's not alone.

"We are not afraid."

Xie Yuzhi's answer was decisive, and she was the first to push the door and get out of the car.

……

Under the cover of night, they bowed their waists and quietly approached the place where the gunshots came from.

"The split-headed dog has arrived, and I will make it our 'eye'."

Xie Yuzhi covered her left eye with one hand and whispered.

"However, I can't seem to 'see' anyone moving..."

As she said, when they came to the edge of the open space, there was no one to be seen. There were only a dozen motorcycles and cars abandoned here, and several hoods had been knocked out; one of them was charred black, and only the skeleton of the car was burning with small flames. It seemed that there had been a large-scale explosion.

The surroundings were quiet, only the sound of wind lingered in my ears, vaguely mixed with the sound of "crackling" burning.

It's like a post-apocalyptic scene in a disaster movie.

Yan Jingxing's nose moved.In addition to the smell of burnt and cold metal, there was a more pungent and stronger smell in the air.That is--

"Look over there."

Xie Yuzhi pointed in a certain direction, and beside the vehicle not far away, there was a suspected human figure lying quietly.

The reason why I say "suspected" is because the sky is dark, and the little firelight makes it difficult to see the specific face; and just looking at the outline, I always feel that this person seems... without an upper body.

Therefore, neither Yan Jingxing nor the two girls approached immediately, but watched cautiously from a distance.

Yan Jingxing took a deep breath and confirmed that the smell of blood coming from the open space was getting stronger and stronger after he approached the center, so he said:

"I'll go and have a look, you guys wait here first."

He didn't wait for an answer, just walked over.Then……

"...!"

Yan Jingxing, who walked closer, covered his mouth so as not to spit it out.

He was not mistaken, this person really lost his upper body.What fell to the ground was only half of the wreckage.The blood and flesh fragments sprayed out from the body smeared the entire car window and tires, and there were still burnt marks on the body, which could be described as horrible.

The pungent smell rushed over, making people's stomachs churn.

"Jing Xing, what's wrong with you?"

When he bent down subconsciously, the girl's worried cry came from behind him.

"No, nothing..."

After Yan Jingxing took a deep breath, he subconsciously held his breath and closed his eyes.

One more breath of this disgusting bloody smell, or one more look at this grisly corpse, and he would really vomit.

It wasn't until he activated his ability to force his emotions and thinking to calm down that he opened his eyes again.

He waved his hand towards the back, motioning them to "don't come here first", and then continued to walk forward with a blank expression.

Along the way, he found more than one corpse, all of them horribly dead, with a lot of signs of festering and burns all over their bodies; among the dozens of corpses, he only found one whose clothes were completely different from the rest.

This person was covered with a heavy uniform and a bulletproof vest. The joints were covered with armor-like metal structures. He wore a black helmet covering his mouth.If the other dead present were punks, he was dressed more like a professional soldier.

as well as……

Yan Jingxing picked up the corpse and moved it to the side, under which was the suppressed black firearm.

He lifted it up with one hand.

It wasn't a pistol, but a shotgun that the young man used to see only in movies.

Suddenly--

Yan Jingxing's pupils contracted slightly, and he realized that his arm was being grabbed by someone. Looking sideways, the "corpse" opened his eyes.

The man in black, he is not dead yet...

*
Time rewinds to 10 minutes ago.

Liu Tie was asking the three ambush gunmen where the man was going.

"A big living person, just disappeared under your noses like this? Does he know invisibility or something?"

"No, no, I think the speed is too fast, we can't see clearly at all, we just feel a flash in front of our eyes..."

The reactions of the subordinates were also full of astonishment. They had obviously never encountered an enemy who could retreat from a gunshot at close range; after surprise, fear followed naturally.

People who can dodge bullets, if they want to take the opportunity to kill them, it's just a piece of cake, right?
Liu Tie sighed and didn't ask any more questions.

No matter how powerful this person is, he can't be stronger than the bullet, so he has to dodge; but with his skill, if he uses the night and chaos to sneak attack in the crowd, I'm afraid few people present will survive.

Moreover, he must have a gun in his hand, and others don't have the ability to dodge bullets like him.

But the problem right now is that this person didn't launch a counterattack after he disappeared. What was he planning to do?
Liu Tie suppressed his inner worries, there was only one person here, and he had already heard gunshots in the distance, indicating that Wu Zhifei's men and his men had already started exchanging fire.

"You guys stare here, I'll go over there to see the situation."

……

He pulled out his gun and ran towards the convoy in a hurry, when he suddenly heard a scream, accompanied by an astonishing explosion, and glaring tongues of flame rose in the night.

Liu Tie was so startled that he fell subconsciously to the ground. When he raised his head again, he smelled a smell of burning oil smoke. In the milky white smoke like a campfire, one of the cars turned into a blazing fireball.

Watching the flames on them go out slowly, after a while, he moved his body and tried to climb to the back of the cement pile.

With his back against the bunker, the man's chest heaved violently, and his heart felt icy cold, as if he had jumped into an ice cave in the twelfth lunar month, and the terrifying chill penetrated deep into his bones.

What did he just... see?
Liu Tie could hardly believe his eyes.

A group of people in black uniforms appeared from the night at the end of the road, and without hesitation raised their guns and fired at everyone they saw on the road.

The shotguns in their hands can kill a person every time they fire, and some bullets are shot at people at close range, and even make the human body burn directly.Even if they hid behind the bunker, they would still be pulled out and shot. The car just now was directly blown up by the other party.In the face of this pure violence, the flesh and blood are like flimsy pieces of paper, blowing away;
Compared with the opposite side, some of the gunmen here were not scared, and wanted to shoot back, but let alone whether they could hit them, even if they hit them, they couldn't take the lives of these black-clothed men, and they couldn't even stop them.

The thick uniforms worn by this group of people have amazing protective properties, and there are obviously bulletproof splints inside, which cannot be penetrated by the caliber kinetic energy of pistol bullets.

Needless to say, this was a one-sided massacre.

At first, Liu Tie thought that he had an advantage in numbers, but this "advantage" was meaningless at all, and the two were not on the same scale at all.

Because the opponent is not a gangster at all, but a group of professional soldiers!
Where did this group of people... come from?
Liu Tie finally managed to control his trembling hands and feet, the pain from the wound was so clear and cold.

...Escape, must escape.

After calming down, Liu Tie realized that the current situation was not something they could handle, and what was needed was a real violent mechanism.

Hurry up and drag the boss to escape, and the eldest lady, absolutely don't let them come over!

Thinking of this, Liu Tie gritted his teeth, dragged himself with his injured arm and crawled towards the road guardrail next to him, rolling down the ramp and entering the lush grass.

Taking advantage of the darkness, he held his breath, not daring to make any movement, for fear of being discovered by the group of black-clothed men.

This group of people easily controlled the situation, and they are currently inspecting the scene, picking out all those who survived, those who were trying to hide, and those who were injured and howling, and shot them to the forehead one by one.

Those who tried to escape also did not escape the eyes of the men in black, and shot them down directly in the back, and then chased after them to fill up their guns, hitting their heads.

The whole process is smooth and full of "professionalism", just like a machine running at full speed in a slaughterhouse, harvesting lives coldly and precisely.

Looking at this posture, this group of people is not allowed to let anyone go, and all witnesses will be wiped out; the methods are so ruthless that Liu Tie is dizzy.

When he was a child, he grew up in a remote village, and he saw the villagers in the mountains fighting against the neighboring village with homemade shotguns and cannons; when he grew up, he went to Hong Kong City and experienced large-scale street gang fights and gang shootouts, and later came back to work with several bosses. Those who can make a fortune in the civil engineering and construction industry are all ruthless...

He thought he was well-informed compared to ordinary people living in peaceful daily life...but all his past experiences paled in comparison to the impressions these black-clothed men suddenly appeared on him.

—The night is burning.

Until this time, Liu Tie still wanted to take Xie Jianye with him.

At this moment, he was very glad that he didn't let the boss follow him, but let his car park in the woods in the distance, very close to the intersection.Anyway, that direction was suitable for escaping, so I simply went there.

The men in black won't search that place so quickly, and the boss is not a fool, he might have driven away if the situation was not good...

With this fantasy in mind, he tiptoed around and got into the grove.

The car was still parked there quietly.

Seeing this, Liu Tie was stunned for a moment, and suddenly had a bad premonition.

Just as he was about to step back, he saw a tall figure coming out of the car with his head lowered.Compared with the size of the opponent, the vehicle itself is not small, and it suddenly feels pocket-sized.

When Wu Zhifei saw him squatting in the grass with a disheveled face, he opened his mouth wide and showed a happy smile.

"Oh! You are here, I just wanted to find you."

He pulled out a middle-aged man with a distressed expression from the car, as easily as lifting a chicken.

"You and your boss should be the only two people who are still alive?"
